Transmission of SARS-COV-2 from China to Europe and West Africa: a detailed phylogenetic analysis

2020-10-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing the Covid-19 pandemic emerged in December 2019 in China and raised fears that it could overwhelm healthcare systems worldwide. In June 2020, all African countries registered human infections with SARS-CoV-2. The virus is mutating steadily and this is monitored by a well curated database of viral nucleotide sequences from samples taken from infected individual thus...
